Nice Little Present for a Friend.u

Liverpool Post.
Some time ago friend Of mine interested
in zoology received one day box from New
Mexico without any mark upon it as to
what it contained. He requested the house,
keeper to open it, on finding it in his hail.,
aroused by considerable cutlery, and found
that the box contained creature about a
yard long, not unlike crocodile. 1t was
really lizard, and my friend Immediately
packed it off to the geological gardens, with
letter to the curator. presenting it to the
collection.
Next day, to his establishment he re-
ceived letter from the CURATOR saying:
Pray. next time you send us an animal for
the collection warn us OF its character, for
this lizard you sent us is a poisonous one
The moment it was taken out of its box it
bit a rabbit, and the animal almost imme-
diately died. AS we took it out of the box
without any hesitation. this might just as
well have happened to the person who I'M
packed the monster
The existence of this poisonous lizard
was unknown to the recipient, and was,
believe, not known at the geological gar
dens. My friend wrote out to his CORE
spondent in New Mexico and found that
he, too, was unaware of the poisonous ma
ture of the animal, and had only sent it on
account of its rarity; but" said the New
Mexican with charming trankness in writ
ing. now You mention it. 1 do remember
that one of these lizards bit man, and cer-
tainly that man died.

BIZ AHEAD.
The Result OF Neglecting a Slight
Cold.

When catarrh has existed in the head and
the upper part of the throat for any length
OF time-the patient living in district where
people are subject to catarrhal affection-and
the disease has been left uncured, the catarrh
invariably, sometimes slowly, extends down
the wndpipe and into the bronchial tubes,
which tubes convey the air into the different
parts of the lungs. The tubes become af-
fected from the swelling and the mucus aris-
ing from catarrh, and in some instances
become plugged up so that the air cannot get
in as freely as it should. Shortness of breath
follows and the patient breathes with labor
and difficulty.
In other cases there is sound of cracking
and wheeling inside the chest. At this stage
of the disease the breathing is usually more
rapid than when IN health. The patient also
has hot flashes over his body.
The pain which accompanies this condition
is of dull character, felt in the chest, behind
the breast bone or under the shoulder blade.
The pain play come and go-last few days
and then be absent for several others. The
cough that occurs in the first stages of bron-
chial catarrh is dry comes at intervals, is
hacking in character and usually most
troublesome in the morning on arising or 60
ing to bed at night, and it may be the first
evidence of the disease extending in the
lungs.
At first there may be nothing brought up
by the cough: then there is q little tough,
tenacious mucus, which the patient finds
Sometimes there are fits of coughing in
duced by tough mucus-so violent as to cause
vomiting. Later on, the mucus that Is raised
is found to contain small particles of yellow
mattel, which indicates that the, small tubes
in the lungs are now affected. With this
there are often streaks of blood mixed with
the mucus. In some cases the patient be-
comes very pale, has fever and expectorates
before any cough appears.
In some cases small masses of cheesy sub
stance are spit up, which, when pressed be-
tween the fingers, emit bad odor. In other
cases particles of a hard, chalky nature are
spit up. The raising of cheesY5 or chalky
Jumps indicates serious mischief at work into
the lungs.
In some cases catarrh will extend into the
lungs in few weeks; in other cases it may
be months and even years before the disease
attacks the lungs sufficiently to cause serious
interference with the general health. When
the disease has developed 10 such point the
patient is said to have catarrhal consump-
ton. With bronchial catarrh there is more
or less fever, which differs with the different
parts of the day-slight in the morning,
higher in the afternoon and evening.

A FEW FACTS
About Shorthand, Type Writing
and TeIegraphY.

Do you know how much money a good
shorthand writer can make in year?
ia Do you know that the demand for good
Shorthand writers is much greater than the
supply?
The pay of first-class stenographers
ranges from 5000 to So, 900 a year, while
there are court reporters in the country who
make as much as S. 600 to $1,000 year!
Why are you not preparing to fill some of
the positions which are always open for
good shorthand writers?
A good telegraph operator can earn from
SIS to $125 per month.
There are three thousand operators needed
year to meet the demand.
Where are they to come from?
Think for momeEt-will it not pay you
to learn?
By spending from four to six months in
my school any young man OF womnn can
be prepared for paying employment, and
can secure work Immediately after finishing
the course!
